The Shit Hit the Fan
November 16th, 2005 | Published in site | 22 Comments
If you’re one of those who panicked — you’re not the only one. The only explanation I can care to give is: when you’re trying your darndest best to pull 2000 words out of your ass, and then you see the flash of pink at a screen which isn’t yours, you might have overreacted, too.
I spent a day mulling over it. Call me foolhardy, but I’ve decided to put all this back: it’s all me. And there’s nothing I can do about it. There isn’t a thing here which I am ashamed of. Isn’t it nice to be in the know?
Everyone else: we had a new reader yesterday — those who offered their sofas, I’ll let you know if I need them.
(Yes, I know a sabbatical means I don’t write — but I thought this was important enough.)

Hrm. I forgot to tell you – I have a dorm room, one I’m sure you’re already acquainted with. ;p

If there’s any kind of help you require, don’t hesitate to ask me either. My sofas are available for you too.
I hope everything goes well, and that your parents will accept you for what you are.

Hi there, just wanted to drop a note to tell you how much I’ve enjoyed your well thought of (out of the box perspective, but nevertheless) well articulated and humourous articles.

Hello uncle, how art thou?

Perhaps love, understanding & acceptance. One can only hope.

Well, when the shit hits the fan, please find a big umbrella.

hey, i kind of know how you feel. although it’s not exactly the same thing, i almost freaked when i found out my parents (AND EXTENDED FAMILY.) read my comic as well. but it turned out alright – i think. now my dad and mum scold me for making dirty jokes.

Eep. And I was freaking out because my journalism prof reads my blog…

oh. my. god.
has the dad said anything yet??
November 18th, 2005 at 5:40 pm (#)
no, strangely.
my best guess is that he read this and found me boring and never came back again.
z and G: yeah!!! we’ll go to godma’s when we both need to sleep on sofas.
everyone else: thanks for everything.
